<p>As noted in a 2014 article by Robert Kaplan in Forbes Magazine: "Geopolitics is the battle for space and power played out in a geographical setting. Just as there are military geopolitics, diplomatic geopolitics, and economic geopolitics, there is also energy geopolitics. For natural resources and the trade routes that bring those resources to consumers are central to the study of geography. Every international order in early modern and modern history is based on an energy resource.Mon, 13 Jun 2016 19:30:30 +0000Rich Fisher99967 at http://publicradiotulsa.org"Energy Geopolitics: A U.S. Perspective" -- An Address by Robin Dunnigan of the U.S. State Dept.Energy Consultant Gustavo Coronel on "Venezuela: Oil and Politics in the 21st Century"http://publicradiotulsa.org/post/energy-consultant-gustavo-coronel-venezuela-oil-and-politics-21st-century
